The Underworld’s Denizens

The Underworld encapsulates the entire interior of the Earth’s crust, overlapping the borders of the living with the borders of the dead. Famous souls, as determined by the Underworld gods of worthiness, gain a new immortal body to live out eternity in, but those who do not are forced to undergo countless reincarnations until they have sufficiently achieved enough in the eyes of Hades, Hel, Osiris or Izanami. As these ‘unworthy’ souls wait a new host to inhabit, they hover around the Earth’s core, and the gods have utilised the countless souls into a colossal seal around the core, causing it to mimic day and night for those who live in the Underworld.
